I know what he's referring to. He's just simply wrong.

thats a debate for some other day.. i would say that Hasek was the better player but Gilbert was the bigger impact.

i also never saw him play in person since i was born in 1981

I could use the cash though.

Xmas is around the corner and I have an Xbox one and PS4 to pay for.

Cancel the Xbone order and don't go into work. Problem solved.

If not mistaken, we had a huge bottling plant here for a long time.

Oh I didn't know that. I knew we were big with nabisco, my dad used to work for them before they closed the plant.

Oh yeah lots of memories about going to see my dad at the plant. Sitting in the warehouse next door and I'd point at a box of Oreos and he'd grab it off the pallet. I still remember the smell when they were baking the triscuts. He works for milkbone now, they've been around in buffalo for like 100 years now I think too. That's also how I used to get my sabres tickets but that's a different story.....

Cheerios after games, Triscuits after the falls. Good stuff, and sad Nabisco shut it down.

Good read, had no idea about the connection between the 40th anniversary jersey and that bottle cap.

It was Kraft after they bought them out. It's sad, that plant is almost worth nothing now.

No, but my friend Eddie owns Mebs Games in Lancaster--he's on HB sometimes--and sells original Xbox for $35. I just bought a 360, kinect, and some games from him for waaaaay less than gamestop or even D-bags on Craigslist.

Just tried calling him for the store # but had a crappy connection....got the price out of him but no phone #.

You know it's hockey season when the blog is six rows down the page in as many hours.

Nichuskin will start season on a line with Shawn Horcoff and Vern Fiddler. That's the equivalent of having him wear suspenders AND a belt.

Reminds me of a line from Monty Python and the Holy Grail. "there are some who call me............Tim"

That's the whole reason why I bought that sweater, because of the history behind it.
I really liked it, heard a lot of people hate on it.
